Need clarification for following wordings
edit"Further, about two thirds of synthetic fibers from clothing production will be found in the ocean from 2015 to 2050." I couldn't get a look at the contents of ciation, but I strongly doubt it. It looks to me that during this period (between 2015 to 2050), 2 thirds of the clothing will use synthietic fibers for production, and part of it will end up in the oceans by shedding microfibers. Can anyone help clarify? Thanks. ThomasYehYeh (talk) 12:37, 4 January 2024 (UTC)
- I agree with ThomasYehYeh's interpretation and disputing of the sentence as written. I removed it altogether, as it's pretty odd to have anything close to such a definite statement about nearly 30 years in the future. DMacks (talk) 18:03, 4 January 2024 (UTC)

English 111 First-Semester College Composition
editOptional Activity -
- Is each fact referenced with an appropriate, reliable reference? Where does the information come from? Are these neutral sources? If biased, is that bias noted?
I noticed while reviewing the article that the very first citation is a biased source. Alden Wicker is a journalist and sustainable fashion expert who has created a brand around promoting alternatives for fast fashion or "toxic fashion". She has written the book 'To Dye For: How Toxic Fashion Is Making Us Sick – and How We Can Fight Back'. While I agree with her position on this subject, I feel that a neutral source will hold more credibility, especially in the introduction of the article.
